How to Start a Small Business With No Money to Spare

Often you read about business start-ups that have $ 20 million or so in venture capital to get them going but for most people the only investment you will get is from your own pocket. That’s not usually very much unless you have mortgaged you house and then, of course, there is the risk.

You have to be very sure of yourself and your potential business if you decide to invest a lot of money in your new business. It’s very risky and thankfully nowdays is not really necessary.

With traditional businesses you really can not get out of putting money into it. There’s just too much to buy and pay for even before you open your doors but if you are prepared to try an online business, it does not have to cost you anything but your own time and efforts.

With an online business it is very possible to get going and produce a good monthly income without having to spend a cent, provided you have your computer and internet connection. So out of all the possible business models to try, what should you attempt.

Top of the list really is affiliate marketing. Selling products and receiving a commission from the companies for doing it. This is a real business. It generates billions of dollars in sales for thousands of companies and you can start without spending any money.

The secret to success in affiliate marketing is knowing what your are doing. Sounds simple. It is but it is surprising how many people try a business that they know nothing about and expect it all to work out quickly. Unfortunately life is not like that.

It does not matter what you look at. The people who are really good have spent time training and learning and putting that into practice. Great sportsmen did not become great overnight. They train and study their techniques and try to learn new ones.

Thankfully affiliate marketing does not take so long to learn but it is vital that you learn what not to do. Even though there are many methods to run this business for free, do not waste your time doing the wrong things.
